Can someone explain to me the need to be represented?

often created by wealthy ignorant elites, of your "people" senselessly limits those opportunities.

Sorry, I'm not cherry picking or ignoring the rest of your post, but this right here - This is the utter and blatant truth of it all, I'm thinking. I wouldn't even say it's necessarily racism or malicious in intent, but it is definitely caused by the incredibly wealthy few who are afraid of change and trying new things. However, because those wealthy few generally are white people, the entire white race gets pinned for it and scrutinized for something that is... well, by and large outside of their control.

That said, however, I do wish we as Americans in general focused on... more important things. Like the elections, our tanking economy, a new energy source, things like that. These are important matters, yes, but we definitely have more pressing things that will impact ALL of us heavily within the next 10 years alone if we don't do something about it. It's just tiring hearing about all of this social justice and tumblrina crap day in and day out (It's literally impossible to actually tune it out or block all of it outside of not going on the internet at all) when honestly.... people need to get thicker skins and quit going out their way to be angry about something.
